Re: 2012-2013 NCAA Basketball Thread

And there you go Kentucky goes down. Biggest thing UK is lacking right now is confidence. They look like scared kids. Also Wiltjer is terrible
Baylor is a stupid team who probably should have won by 15+

Re: 2012-2013 NCAA Basketball Thread

Trust me, being from Southern Indiana as well, those Kentucky games meant more to me that any Purdue game ever will. I don't think we have seen the end of the rivalry. It will be back. Maybe not for a few years, but it will be back.

My bias towards having it in Indy is because I went to several of the games with my family growing up: 1997, 1999, 2003, 2005. I just remember always having a great time and marveling at the sea of blue and red on the streets and in the Dome. Good memories. My freshman year at IU (06-07) was the first year we played at Rupp. The next year was the Gordon year and I had season tickets, but the UK game was unfortunately one of the games I didn't get. I did go in 09-10, but our team was crap that year. So the only IU-UK game I've been to at AH is the one we lost. I didn't see either of the two wins.

UK in the AP poll: "also receiving votes"

LOL

The poster "pacertom" since this forum began (and before!). I changed my name here to "Slick Pinkham" in honor of the imaginary player That Bobby "Slick" Leonard picked late in the 1971 ABA draft (true story!)

That is the biggest thing kid is useless. They win that game if Wiltjer isnt terrible. Mays isnt an NBA player Harrow isnt there mentally so 3 guys that normally would be NBA talent that aren't in UKs rotation right now. They just aren't talented enough to make up for young mistakes.

Re: 2012-2013 NCAA Basketball Thread

Apparently it didn't because UK wanted the deal they offered...don't be blinded by fandom blame game is both ways...

Blame falls on both--but more probably falls on Kentucky's shoulders. We offered them a fair compromise that would have given them what they wanted, while also giving us what we wanted. They were completely unwilling to compromise, and you can't totally blame the Hoosiers for saying, "**** you" at that point.
